The Parliamentary Security and Defense Committee revealed, today, Monday (October 21, 2024), the secrets of 6 qualitative strikes against currency counterfeiting networks in Iraq.
Committee member MP Yasser Iskandar said in an interview with Baghdad Today, "Counterfeiting currencies, whether foreign or local, has serious repercussions on the economy. It drains people's savings and creates a state of mistrust, especially since counterfeiting operations have taken on a dimension of precision and professionalism because the networks involved in them cross borders, meaning that there are international mafias with multiple addresses."
He added, "The Ministry of Interior succeeded, through exceptional efforts, in directing 6 qualitative strikes against currency counterfeiting networks in Iraq during 2024, and contributed to the arrest of many of its leaders and the seizure of large sums of money that were on their way to marketing."
Iskandar pointed out that "counterfeiting crimes are low compared to previous years, in addition to awareness messages, which have begun to bear fruit through checking currencies and reporting counterfeit ones directly by stakeholders, whether banking or companies, reaching the ordinary citizen, and this reflects important awareness."
On Saturday (October 19, 2024), financial and economic expert Alaa Al-Fahd revealed the authorities responsible for protecting the Iraqi currency from counterfeiting and its spread in the markets.
Al-Fahd told Baghdad Today, "The mission of the Central Bank of Iraq is to issue currency and maintain monetary policy and coordination in this field. As for the issue of counterfeit currency, this is the responsibility of the specialized executive government agencies. The bank's goal when it issues its currency is to work on finding ways to protect this currency from counterfeiting, and this matter exists in all countries of the world."
He added that "the issue of gangs and currency counterfeiting mafias is not within the tasks and duties of the Central Bank to confront, even the issue of currency smuggling is not within the Bank's tasks," indicating that "these issues are the responsibility of the specialized executive government agencies, including the security agencies, and for this reason the Central Bank of Iraq always works to coordinate with those government agencies in order to preserve the Iraqi economy and currency."
The expert confirmed that "even the dollar is a counterfeit currency, not only in Iraq but in most countries of the world, and this is not the responsibility of the Central Bank of Iraq, but rather the responsibility of the specialized executive government agencies."
